Strengthening a weak soil foundation is a contemporary problem in engineering geology and geotechnical investigations. Such strengthening can be achieved, among others, through the use of different types of geosynthetics. They improve the mechanical parameters of the reinforced layers, increasing the load bearing capacity and extending the durability of geotechnical structures. Such solutions are commonly used to strengthen a weak subgrade in transport investments and civil engineering. This paper presents structu...

Modeling and calculations of the reinforced soil displacements are a current problem in engineering geology and geotechnical investments. One of the forms of soil reinforcement is the use of geocell systems. Geosynthetics increase the strength of weak subgrade by insertion stiffness for tension and extending the durability of geotechnical structures. Geocell systems are often used in transport infrastructure, for example for reinforcing the subgrade of railway lines. This paper presents the results of finite eleme...
